Abstract: Embodiments herein relate e.g. to a method performed a wireless device (10) for handling communication of the wireless device (10) in a wireless communication network (1). A radio network node (12) serves the wireless device (10). The wireless device obtains a first indication indicating a first number of beams for performing cell quality derivation on and a second indication indicating a second number of beams for performing measurement reporting on. The wireless device performs a cell quality derivation taking the first indication into account; and performs measurement reporting of a second number of beams taking the second indication into account.

Abstract: A method and one or more network nodes for use in a wireless communication network to determine whether a wireless device is aerial. The one or more one or more network nodes communicate with the wireless device to instruct to report one or more metrics of wireless device parameters. The one or more network nodes receives from the wireless device a report of the metrics and then compares the reported metrics to terrestrial metrics to determine whether the wireless device is aerial.

Abstract: A radio network node (12) in a wireless communication network (10) configures a wireless device (30) to send a measurement report responsive a determination by the device (30) that its current network coverage condition matches a predefined coverage condition that is characteristic of airborne operation of the device (30) at the current location of the device (30). As advantageously recognized herein, the network coverage condition experienced by the wireless device (30) at its current location changes as it rises above ground level. By configuring die device (30) to send a measurement report when its network coverage condition satisfies a coverage condition that, for the current location of the device (30). is characteristic of airborne operation, the network (10) effectively defines a mechanism for detecting airborne operation of the device and making one or more control decisions for the device (30). e.g., to limit network interference experienced or caused by the device (30).
